Facilitating ease of use, YMConnect is a robot communication software development kit (SDK) that enables developers to create custom applications that communicate with Yaskawa robots. The successor to MotoCom SDK, YMConnect utilizes a cross-platform library to control and monitor a robot over Ethernet, allowing for integration of a custom PC application with the robot controller. A GitHub repository helps to distribute the dynamic library and enables the user to use provided examples to jump-start the development process.

-
Modern C++ 17 programming language
-
Code documentation and example coding
